How can you improve your reading?
As the old saying goes "Practise makes perfect". We get good at what we do most frequently. Reading regularly can make a real difference to your reading ability and also have a positive impact on your vocabulary in general and your ability to deduce the meaning of words from context in particular. So why not read a book in English over the next few weeks? If you don't feel up to reading a "real" book in English you could always consider trying a simplified reader. These are "real" books that have been adapted for different levels of English. They are sometimes called graded readers and are a great way to maintain your English level during the holidays. If you don't fancy a graded reader, how about selecting an article from a newspaper and underlining all the words you understand in it as you read it - this can be a great confidence builder. Whatever you choose, it will be better than nothing! Happy reading
